Verisign web hosting?!?

I just saw a TV ad on the History Channel for websites hosted by Verisign.

What on Earth are they thinking? No demos. No screenshots of their editing interface. No FAQ. No mention of browser-based editing, web services integration, browser compatibility, web standards, shopping carts, credit card acceptance, automated features, etc… All they have is a pretty woman smiling at you next to a fancy banner graphic which reads, “It’s as easy as 1-2-3…” [their emphasis, not mine].

In fact, there’s not a single hyperlink on the entire page!

$65.00 per year (domain name regisration not included)? Looks like a money-grab to me. A company as wealthy and powerful as Verisign could do much better than this. I’ll stick with what I’m using for $39.95/year, thank-you-very-much.
